Thanks for your bugreport. I made an embarrasing error in -6 release. This was fixed today in -7 expected to arrive in unstable in less than 12 hours. This bug is believed to be a dubplicate of 532392, thus force-merging. The releases newer than -1.1 contain many many improvements. If you are eager to use them (or are even hit by some of the bugs fixed by them), I have unofficial packages available by adding the following to your /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://debian.jones.dk/ sid ghostscript ...there's also a similar one for Lenny, if you want the improved Ghostscript in an otherwise stable environment. ...and to get ahead of you: No, I do not use backports.debian.org, as that concept is too simple for my taste (no support for chains of backported build-dependencies).
